Send Audio Files to Telegram Groups in Python 3 - Complete Guide

Automate Telegram Group Audio Sharing with Python 3

Need to deliver audio content, voice announcements, or sound notifications to Telegram groups directly from your Python applications? This guide walks you through sending audio files (MP3 format) to Telegram groups using Python 3 and the WhatsMate Telegram Gateway REST API. Perfect for Python developers, data scientists, and automation enthusiasts who want to integrate group audio delivery into their Python-based workflows.

📋 Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

1. A WhatsMate Telegram Gateway account - Required for API access
2. Group registration - The Telegram group must be registered with the Gateway first
3. Python 3 installed - Version 3.6+ recommended for modern Python features
4. Basic Python knowledge - Familiarity with Python programming
5. Audio file ready - Have the MP3 file you want to send available locally
6. Requests library - Install via pip install requests if not already available

⚠️ Important: Telegram groups must be registered with the WhatsMate Telegram Gateway before they can receive messages. Unregistered groups will not receive any messages from the Gateway. Registration instructions are available on the official WhatsMate site.

pip install requests

4. Send Your Audio File

Run the Python script to deliver your audio to the Telegram group:

python3 send-telegram-mp3-group.py

🔧 Common Use Cases

This automation approach is ideal for:

• Machine learning integration - Deliver audio outputs from speech recognition or audio generation models to team collaboration groups
• Data science workflows - Send audio notifications or analysis results from Python data pipelines to project groups
• Integration with Python audio processing - Combine with Python libraries like pydub, librosa, or soundfile for audio manipulation before Telegram group delivery
• System monitoring alerts - Send audio alerts for server status or monitoring events from Python applications to operations teams
• Python community content - Share podcasts, music, or audio recordings with Python Telegram groups
